What your trying to do is a big overkill if you want only one device to connect to a VPN.
Your VPN installed on your raspberry pi should have a "local network sharing" option. Based on some blogs mullvad had some issues with hostname and network shares (as of 07/2022) and you should try to connect via IP address if you're having trouble.
Local network sharing only works on the same subnet (IP address of your computer, Pi, and TV should have the first 3 parts of the IP match, ex: 192.168.4.xxx not 192.168.x.xxx).
If you're trying to SSH to the Pi when not connected to the same network it's going to be much more difficult.
If all above fails, this GitHub issue suggests advanced split tunneling setup on the Pi so that it can listen for SSH locally.
but I can't just have one device connected to the VPN. I have to be able to tell it what to download (from a device) and then watch it (from a device)
edit: also, from your link there
No, I have not adapted and counted the rules to trigger on incoming packets with an nft list ruleset because I have no idea what that means
From the link inside that link
no idea what any of this means, nor what to do with it, what to change, or where to put it.
I can't be a complete idiot for thinking this seems overwhelmingly technical. Like surely you can't believe you can show that to the average person on the street and they'd be like "ohhh just table inet exclude traffic! of course!"
and "exclude traffic" sounds like the opposite of what I want - which is to include my ssh traffic.
